Crock Pot Peach Crisp

Serves 6-8

4 heaping cups sliced fresh peaches (I don’t peel them, but you can if you prefer.)

2 Tablespoons maple syrup

1 Tablespoons lemon juice

2 teaspoons vanilla

2/3 cups flour (I use whole wheat.)

2/3 cups rolled oats

2/3 cups brown sugar (or sucanat)

2 teaspoons cinnamon

1/2 teaspoons nutmeg

1/4 teaspoons salt

1/2 cup butter (not margarine)

Combine peaches with maple syrup, lemon juice and vanilla. Place in a greased 3 or 4 quart slow cooker.

In a bowl, mix remaining ingredients except butter. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over peaches and press down slightly.

Cover the crock pot with a paper towel. Put the lid over the paper towel and seal the crock pot.

Cook on HIGH for two hours. Serve with vanilla ice cream.
